Following the massive success of Gadar 2, director Anil Sharma seems ready to explore yet another emotionally charged and thought-provoking narrative with his film, Vanvaas. With Nana Patekar and Utkarsh Sharma as the lead, the film promises to offer a fresh and modern interpretation of the Ramayana. Given Anil Sharma's knack for blending strong storytelling with emotion and drama, Vanvaas could very well be another blockbuster in the making.
The trailer for Vanvaas was recently released, sparking significant excitement among audiences. Known for films like Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, Sharma directs, writes, and produces this heartfelt drama set to explore themes of family, sacrifice, and the bonds that transcend blood ties.
In an interview, Nana Patekar who plays the lead in the film, talked about the movie Vanvaas. The legendary actor said, "Whenever I go to watch a film, especially during school days, if I identify with the characters on screen, then the film feels personal. It feels like the story belongs to us. This is the kind of film Vanvaas is,"
He added, “The identification will be so strong that it feels like the story of every home. When I first heard the story, it resonated with me deeply. As a normal person, it pleased me. I loved it. There’s nothing extraordinary, just the need to remember our own past experiences and bring them to life.”
Director Anil Sharma has asserted that Vanvaas is a deeply personal project for him, as it delves into themes of love, sacrifice, and the complexities of family relationships. In interviews, he emphasized that the film's exploration of these emotions was central to his storytelling approach.
The director said, “This film reflects emotions that we often keep buried deep inside ourselves. It's not just a story but a journey to understanding the essence of family, honor, and belonging. Nana Patekar, Utkarsh, Simrat, and Rajpal Yadav have brought unmatched depth and authenticity to their roles. I'm excited for the audience to witness their performances on the big screen."
